Ok I freely admit slightly self serving here but I figure this could come in useful to anyone collecting a new GP in the future.
What are common things found wrong on the new gp's (I know there were a lot of common issues, like squealing brakes, door locks that broke, warped glove boxes etc but I think looking at forum posts these are getting rarer with the new GP's) and what things should you check before you drive away from the dealership?
Actually while I'm asking can someone lay something to rest for me, because there are loads of threads about it but none of them have had a black and white answer that someone who doesn't know his wobbly bolt from his offset rim hole can understand... If I wasn't happy using the fix and go kit in a Sporting what are my options? (keep it simple, some people are easily confused
)
Also anything the new GP user should do to the car when he gets it? (I'm assuming wax and polish till it blinds people when in direct sunlight to protect the thin paint, anything else?)
